Learning Happens Through Diversity
Funded Sep 1, 2019As a school our main goal is to encourage the love of reading. With our new supply the scholar are able to have a reading corner with different types of seating to allow them to fully enjoy reading. The cushions allow the scholars to work on the floor and still be able to be comfortable. The lights set the mood and environment and it gets the scholars excited and ready to learn. It helps with calming down after recess and also changing the environment so that they are relaxed while taking assessments. Using the stop light helps when working in small group, it signals to the scholars that they can not interrupt during this time. And the traveling desk allows me to continue to teach from anywhere in the room and still have all of my material.
When the students first saw the new materials they were excited, they asked questions, and they have learned to respect their new material.
My next steps are to continue to improve as a teacher, but to also provide the tools that all my scholars need in order to become successful. At the beginning of this school year, my scholars struggled in the area of reading. With the material for the reading corner and the lighting to enhance the environment, my scholars have already shown great growth and my goal is to continue to push and motivate them to strive for success.”
